For those working with children and families with developmental trauma, the impacts on emotional regulation, relationship development, and the ability to feel safe are profound. Advances in the fields of early childhood development and attachment theory have shown us that these early life experiences provide the foundation for infants to interact with and form attachment to parents, and eventually to build relationships with others.

During this one-day workshop participants will:

Understand what attachment is and distinguish the main behavioural characteristics of secure and insecure attachment styles.

Examine how attachment styles affect brain development and the implications for trauma survivors.

Gain an understanding of the complex impacts of developmental trauma on individuals and communities, at neurobiological, emotional, physical, and spiritual levels.

Participants will leave this workshop with an understanding of a trauma-informed approach and basic strategies to support children and families who have experienced attachment disruption and developmental trauma.
